Career Conversations with Chris

Bright Shiny Objects: David Armitage on Innovation, AI, and the Future of Work with Co-Host Henry Lewisohn

Christopher Wachuta

In this visionary episode of Career Conversations with Chris, host Chris Wachuta and co-host Henry Lewinsohn sit down with David Armitage, a visionary entrepreneur who has spent decades at the forefront of technology.

Key highlights from our conversation with David:

  • Learning FORTRAN at IBM labs as a child and coding alongside a young Bill Gates
  • Inventing the First Wireless Tablet, winning CES Product of the Year in 2001 but falling  victim to market timing
  • Cutting vehicle fleet crashes by 60% using gamified driver scoring at Cardastie
  • The Future of Jobs: How AI is disrupting white-collar industries faster than blue-collar ones, and why problem-solving and architecture are now more valuable than coding.
  • Maxing out 36 credit cars to save his company

Join Chris, Henry, and David for an eye-opening conversation that will challenge how you think about technology, entrepreneurship, and the power of curiosity.
